I usually experience mild body warmth, and my doctor said a light 15-minute walk is fine if I don't have an active fever. But if you actually have a proper fever, please avoid any workouts, rest completely, and let your doctor advise you first.
Actually, my doctor explained that while hormonal changes can slightly raise your basal body temperature, a proper high fever is not normal during periods. It could indicate an underlying infection or inflammation like pelvic inflammatory disease, so you should get it checked by a gynecologist.
No, a real fever is not a standard period symptom. Don't just sit and suffer thinking it is regular menstrual pain or fatigue. Book an appointment with a doctor and get a proper diagnosis instead of guessing.
When my blood sugars are erratic during periods, my body feels very hot, but an actual fever shouldn't be ignored. Stick to light, non-sugary warm foods and monitor your temperature, but please consult your physician to rule out any infections.
As if the cramps, bloating, and zero sleep weren't enough, now fever wants to join the party? Honestly, our bodies go through a lot, but a real fever is a red flag. Please talk to your doc instead of losing sleep over it.

It must be so uncomfortable to deal with fever alongside your periods. Please take complete rest, stay hydrated, and gently consult a doctor to see why this is happening. Take care of yourself.
My sister used to get really hot and feel feverish during her periods, and the doctor told her it was due to some infection, not just the cycle. Better to get checked by a specialist rather than waiting for it to go away on its own.
